Lucas' POVToday was different. The atmosphere was tense, I could hear sizzling hot water from downstairs from the workers. Father had set them all up for a task whilst he settled in his room to rest.I was in Damon's room still attending to him. His body had completely healed from the injuries he previously sustained due to father's outburst.It hurt me to know how badly I hurt Andrea. I never meant for her to misunderstand. Although coming from her point of view she sees me as Damons brother who may want to protect him at all cost.The curse was making him turn into someone he wasn't. I watched Damon sulk on his bed while I stood next to the window. Father has still not been able to talk to him at least to understand or help his son."You know you can't lock yourself in here forever." I said, breaking the silence between us two."Dad thinks I'm a disgrace, Lucas." Damon said. “He just might kill me soon enough."I was short of words. There was really nothing I could say that wouldn
Andrea's POVI woke up feeling sour and gloomy. The nights was cool but felt hard, yet I couldn’t find it in me to stand up. I crunched as I stood up. My body felt tight and I needed to free up. I could feel Kira was still sleeping. She had been through a lot. She needed it.A smell from somewhere around slammed my nose. I still had my eyes closed or rather, it was not properly open. I was not fully awake. I wondered where I was or how I got here. I itched my body so bad, I almost injured myself.“Calm down. Don’t injure yourself” I heard from a man who happened to be my father. His eyes looked straight into me. His smile was a bit scary and his look made me gulp in fear. I didn’t know why I was scared. Maybe it was because of the fact that he definitely had kidnapped me.Oh, that was why I went unconscious. I thought.It seems my problems don’t stop. It just keeps getting worse.I knew my father loved me and wanted me back, but I kind of didn’t want to stay here. I still preferred s
Lucas' POVI went to check on Damon again. I needed to see how he was doing. He had been feeling guilty for forcing himself on Andrea and it was quite unforgettable.The curse was something else and it needed to be broken. Seeing him in this state was very disturbing. Every minute, he kept fighting to hold himself; to not let the curse get to him.I walked hastily to see him. My feet hit the ground with force and every second felt like I was going to break them. From Andrea to Damon, to Octavia and Ruby, it was weakening. How were we going to come out of this situation?I remembered my recent encounter with Andrea. I hoped she was doing well. It is such a pity she had been caught up in all of this. Octavia should have been a better person. I just hope we find her.I tried to open the door but the door was locked. Why did he lock it? I hope he didn’t want to do something stupid. I knocked for some seconds and no one answered. Oh boy, what was he up to? I shouldn’t have left him.Soon a
Andrea's POVIt was night time and I went to wash off. Peter had not still opened the door. Everything I needed to clean myself was available. I soaked myself in the bath tub and let every part of my bone feel the cold water. The night was a bit cold but I felt hot. The whole thing was probably getting to me; from being raped by my step-brother to being kidnapped by my own father. How did I get entangled in all these? Peter treated me well, but I wasn’t still comfortable.I wanted to stay in the bath tub for as long as I kept thinking of everything, but I heard the door open. That must be Peter. I thought.I stood up from the tub immediately and went to see who it was. I peeped from the bathroom door to be sure. It wasn’t Peter but the maid.“The Alpha said you would need help” she said respectfully.“Don’t worry about it. I am okay. You can leave” I replied“Ok. The Alpha said I should leave the door unlocked. Please, don’t run away or he could have my head for it” she babied at me.“
Lucas’ POVMy father and I decided to go take Ruby from her pack house. We had no time for the nonsense Octavia had been displaying for hours. At least, we had been able to get something from her. We needed to know about how to break Damon’s curse and fast. Ruby was the only option we had at the moment.We got to her pack house and dealt with her security, we made them go unconscious with a very thick smell of a pungent potion. My father wanted to snap their necks but I insisted on using the potion due avoid causing a hullabaloo. He gritted his teeth and cursed under his breath. We sneaked in through the back door, broke the door knob and got in. She switched on all her bulbs, a certain behaviour she was so used to. She wasn’t the type to switch off her lights even though she wasn’t using it. She hated the dark or maybe, it could be because of the enemies she had garnered over time. She needed to be notified. So weird she didn’t put an alarm. I thought.We looked for her, opened diffe
Lucas' POV“We would need to do a ritual” Ruby said.“What ritual?” I asked.She looked at me with a disgusted expression. She rolled her eyes and said “I don’t know about it”“You don’t know about it?!” My father shouted.What was this woman up to again? Couldn’t she be straightforward?Ruby folded her arms, looked down before looking up again and said “I don’t know about it but I know who we could meet to do it. He is very experienced in curses. He has cleansed a lot of people from their curse” she explained.“Ok fine. How do we get to meet him?” I asked. My voice sounded really hasty.“I will call him. He will be here tomorrow” Ruby replied.I had let go of Octavia and she stood behind Ruby.“Make sure you do or else…” my father warned and he never joked, especially with things like this.He stormed out of the place and slammed the door. He was getting hysteric. It was something he couldn’t control. When you have made him angry, even for the smallest of things, he will make sure yo
Lucas' POVI went to check on Damon. He had been sleeping for 24 hours now. Dean said it wouldn’t take too long before he woke up and it had been a full day. I kept checking his heartbeat frequently. Even though Dean said the curse was broken, we couldn’t be too sure about it. Besides, it was Ruby who recommended him. She could do anything. She just didn’t care. My father and I locked Dean, Ruby and Octavia in a room until we were sure about Damon’s recovery.I placed my hand on his head to feel his temperature and it was warm. His temperature was very okay. I checked his heartbeat and it beat fine. I tried piercing him lightly with a needle to see if he would wake, but he didn’t even budge. I usually pierced my brother with sharp objects to wake up, because he slept deeply. No matter how much you shouted or tapped him hard, he wouldn’t wake up. The sharp objects was what I used to get him up. With just a small pinch, he would wake up. He slept straight, looking very pale as if his bl
Ruby’s POV"You look gorgeous in this dress, my darling." Alpha Damien's words were admiratively spoken to Sierra. He had a proud smile on and whenever he looked at her, you could see affection and love twinkle brightly in his gaze."Thank you, my love. I really love these dresses you bought for me, and the jewelry too. You are so kind." Sierra gushed, and her eyes mirrored the look in his; they stared at each other with esteem fondness expressed on their features, like young teenagers newly in love. And as much as I'd hate to admit, it's obvious that he loved her more than he ever loved me. My contemptuous frown deepened when he leaned in and kissed her. She kissed back of course, giggling lightly against his lips as she did so. I grimaced as their actions made me cringe. I averted my eyes with a scoff and crossed my arms over my chest.After Damon was released from his curse, I was allowed free will around the house for some time, and I decided to use it to my advantage. Now, I was
